I am currently using Trilium for my notes. But I am constantly annoyed by the mobile experience. What I want:
-
sync across devices from a central server (this is why I went with Trilium, as having a web client means there’s always the same notes everywhere)
-
native Android app with local storage so that I don’t have to log in just for looking up a single note (this is what annoys me most about Trilium, plus the UX on mobile)
-
web version (for use on PC)
I only need very basic markup, markdown support is enough. I don’t worry about security, as I run everything inside my own VPN.
Is there something like this out there? I always see people raving about Obsidian, but sync seems to really suck there. Using some folder sync is a no go for me.
Obsidian aldo has (paid, subscription) native sync that is supposed to work better than file sync. Another alternative is git sync. That’s basically file sync through git but great if you want to track your changes.

There’s a community plugin for self hosted live sync.
